I feel like my house is constantly a fucking mess. My wife and I work 80 hours between us and we have a 2 year old and I feel like it's constantly a mess.

We do what we can and often spend a couple hours on a weekend tidying but it's a losing battle.

How do you cope/keep on top of things?

I recently found out I had ADHD, which explained a lot imo.

BUT, you have a kid. Who has a kid and a tidy house? Rich MFers who get there home cleaned weekly ig

It makes me wonder if anyone really has a clean house or I only really go to my parents/in-laws house and they have only themselves to clean up after

I've found the only people I know who have clean houses are: people without kids, people with house cleaners, people who's mental health issues make them want to clean. Everyone else just apologizes for their mess and moves on.
